Pray For Nigeria

Just
in case you missed what's going on because news outlets think it's only best to
have this scroll across only on the blinker and nothing more, here's what has
been going on in Nigeria so far. Click the image to get an enlarged

So now that you're caught up on what's going on
over there, I hope you understand the anger, sadness, frustration
and rage over this situation right now. I mean I'm just past the
point of being angry with the U.S. anymore because it's just a
normal way of living. It's basically a big corporation. So with that
being said, if it's not something in it for them, then they're not
going to waste the assets. Now I don't have a problem with that per
say, if they were consistent with the view of us handling our own
and only ours.

But they haven't, hell they get mad when Obama
proposes stuff that will actually help the country out. So when I
see what's going on in Nigeria it angers me because I wonder what
would it take for help to be given. I mean clearly they don't care
about African Americans or anything resembling African decent.
Because they were so quick to issue statements about what's going on
in France but wouldn't release one for this or the multiple
shootings in this country.

I'm pretty sure that rolling out troops to go
find and kill terrorists that are hiding in plain site wouldn't be
hard. I'm not going to make that reach of saying that soldiers
wouldn't mind going over there because most of the soldiers that
actually do the heavy lifting have spent the last couple of years in
Iraq and Afghanistan and they are stretched thin. That's why we need
to better train our army and give them the best tools available so
when things like killing 2,000 people in a day would be met swift
action.

I know we need to practice minding our own
business and not risking the lives of soldiers, but if we don't
stand up against injustice and protect the poor across the world and
not just in countries that produce oil, then who will? I know
they'll say that Africa should worry about protecting Africa, but
how can they when it's ravaged, pillaged and left to become a wild
west frontier in most of those countries. I just pray everyday that
NATO or the United Nations steps in and tries to at least do
something, but even that's a stretch because they can't do that
much.

This just makes me angry and sad that not even
the slightest of press coverage is being committed to this, and a
picture of burned bodies is being passed along twitter so easily. At
this point the only thing you can do is pray because no one is
trying to help Nigeria at all. It makes you wonder about what's
really important in this world.
